Current situation The Committee reviewed the present petition and agreed that no action would be taken. The present landscaping provides an attractive area on the highway. The plantings also provide a safety area between vehicles travelling in opposite directione. There are no funds in the 1991 Parks & Recreation Department budget to remove trees or do any kind of replanting, along the Lougheed Highway median. It should also be noted that the majority of businesses came into Port Coquitlam after the landscaped area, along the highway, was in place. . | K,-Janna Taylor, . f a "Parks & Recreation Director
